Hybrid pic request

DumbasSi · 05-04-2006, 07:52 PM

I was wondering/hoping that a Hybrid owner could take a close-up pic of your wheel lug nuts. I've heard they are open-ended and very light weight and I'm curious about them. Can a fellow 8th Gen owner do me a favour?
Thanks

do you know if those lug nuts can be used for other wheels?

Other Honda/Acura wheels? Yes. They all have the same thread pitch @ 12x1.5.

the lug nuts are open ended because they have a cover around the lug nuts.

wheel is plain UGLY but it's good for the aerodynamics and rolling resistance

my mpg went from 32.0 mpg with 16" steel lx wheels w/205/55s to 34.9 mpg with the lightweight 15" hybrid wheels w/ 195/65s low resistence tires. car rides like a dream. only other wheel i would like is the 98-01 integra type R 15x6 alloys in white or gunmetal.
